A city uses a water tower to store water for times of high demand. When demand is light, water is pumped into the tower. When de

mand is heavy, water can flow from the tower with- out overwhelming the pumps. To provide water at a typical 350 kPa gauge pressure, how tall must the tower be?

Answer:

The height of the tower will be 35.714 m

Explanation:

We have given gauge pressure P=350kPa=350\times 10^3Pa

Density of water \rho =1000kg/m^3

We have to find the height of the tower h

We know that gauge pressure is given by P=\rho gh

350\times 10^3=100 0\times 9.8\times h

h=35.714m

So the height of the tower will be 35.714 m

What type of light does this light bulb produce most (i.e. at what wavelength does the spectrum have maximum intensity)?
lesantik [10]

Answer: The light bulb produces the continuous light. At minimum wavelength the spectrum have maximum intensity.

Explanation:

According to Wein's displacement law, the wavelength is inversely proportional to the temperature.

The intensity depends on the frequency. The frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength.

Therefore, when the temperature of the light bulb will be maximum then the wavelength will be minimum. At minimum wavelength the spectrum have maximum intensity.

(HELP!!! 30 pts if answered right. )What formula gives the strength of an electric field, E, at a distance from a known source c
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

E=\frac{k\,Q}{d^2}

Explanation:

The strength of an electric field E produced by a single charge Q at a distance d from it is given by the formula: E=\frac{k\,Q}{d^2}, where K represents the Coulomb constant.

Since the electric field E is derived from the Coulomb Force per unit charge using a positive test charge, the field's units will be in units of Newtons/Coulomb, and be the formula for the Coulomb electric force between to charges (Q1 and Q2),

F_C=k\frac{Q_1\,Q_2}{d^2}

but modified with only one charge showing in the numerator of the expression.

The three forces acting on a hot-air balloon that is moving vertically are its weight, the force due to air resistance and the u
Aleksandr [31]
Let
upthrust = T
weight = W = mg
Air resistance = F

When balloon is descending, air resistance acts upwards (positive)
By Newton's first law, the net force on the balloon is zero, or
T+F-W=0......................(1)

Let w=weight of material dumped so that balloon now travels upwards at constant speed.
Air resistance acts against motion, namely downwards.
The Newton's equation now reads
T-F-(W-w)=0................(2)

Subtract (2) from (1)
T+F-W - (T-F-(W-w)) = 0
Solve for w
w=2F, or
the WEIGHT of material to be released equals twice the resistance of air.

Although blood cells are contained within a special liquid called plasma, the cells themselves are___________.
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Solid

Explanation:

The plasma is the liquid part of blood, it is 90% and accounts for 55% of blood volume. It is what red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets move around in. These cells remain solid within the plasma. I hoped this helped!
